I've done that before. I had a tank one time that didn't do his job and when he finally decided to attack something, he couldn't keep the hate.
So when he died he stayed dead and the 2 DPS guys and myself carried the team
ugh... leveling white mage for my dragoon subjob in FFXI was the worst experience ever I eventually decided to solo the last 3 levels. I appreciated all my healers after that. I was so happy after that was over. Damn I miss that game though. I had a pimped out Dragoon, one of the only ones with the crimson pants that make you run faster.... and I also had a full damage reduction setup so I could solo stuff, although I'd use black mage as my subjob usually... in case I got in over my head and needed to super jump and let my wyvern tank while I warped lol. Gizmo!!!!!!
